Egg Carton Lights: how-to

How awesome are these flower petal LED lights? I ran across them about a year ago and have been wanting to attempt them ever since. They are quite pretty and super easy to make. I found these babies on apartment therapy. If you're interested in creating them, read on and I'll tell you just what you need and what you need to do(:

Materials

• an empty egg carton (or a few, depending on how many you plan on making)
• LED lights
• scissors
• hole punch (optional)

How-To

• first you want to cut away excess cardboard surrounding the cup strips

• then you'll want to cut out each individual cup and trim the edges to form the "flower petals"

• next you'll want to simply insert one LED bulb into each of the "flowers"
• optional--you can use a hole punch or the tip of a small object (such as a sewing needle) to punch holes through the "petals" to make them look even more decorative

...and VOILA! pretty flower petal LED lights(: Happy first day of December everyone!
